We are proud of our long-established commitment to widening participation, our world-leading research, public and private sector collaborations and our track-record for providing quality student experiences that result in graduates who are the tomorrow-makers of our societies and economies.
Continuous Improvement, Change and Compliance (CICC) was created as part of a University review.

The successful candidate will demonstrate a track record of leading CI activities in a large complex organisation, working with stakeholders to deliver added value and efficiency to the business. Experience or awareness of the Higher Education sector would be advantageous but applications from candidates with other backgrounds are welcome.
